Oops. I forgot to write something on this blog to make an official announcement yesterday. Maybe I didn’t do it because my last blog post sort of said so, but it’s done! I’m finished! The book I’ve been trying to write all this time is complete. Continue reading “Oops, Finito!”

June 1st
For those of you listening, I have some positive news about the progress on rewriting my memoir. I’m almost there!
95% of the Time
You haven’t heard from me on this blog because I’ve been hard at work on the new rewrite. It’s been going well, and fast. And that’s probably because I haven’t slept since February.
Motivated
What in the world is happening with this goddamned book?
Takes What it Takes
I said somewhere that I would ‘splain myself–that I would share what was happening, what went wrong, my plans and future steps about the manuscript. I know a lot of eye-rolling is coming my way, but I can’t concern myself with that. The book will be done when it’s done.
For Crying Out Wolf
Last we spoke, I was writing my last four pages, wasn’t I? Then I was going to do a read-through. Seemed simple enough. Well…
Fixing toward the Home Stretch!
I don’t know how many times I’ve said it. Maybe too many now. But this is the weekend I will finally get some sleep — I mean, I certainly hope I won’t have trouble sleeping. That would suck!
Ready or Not
It’s been some time and I’ve been on a break from this book since June. Now it’s back in my hands from the copy editor and I’m already working on the suggested edits.
Moving the Writing Muscle
Well I guess this writing bug is not over for me. It’s been a month since the Shrapnel manuscript has been with the copy editor and I’ve been doing a lot more writing. I’m even onto something new and today I have finalized a story…for reals.
Edited-Unedited
It’s pretty weird not to have a manuscript to obsess over. It’s also fine because I now have plenty of art projects on my work plate, and most of those need to be well on their way before I get the book back from my copy editor, Mr. Wilde.
